breaking wave — I keep teaching myself to surface #haiku #poetry

Nocturne Scattered stars promise, toward night the sky will open, but not the heart. You carried clouds inside, and every night is moonless.

We grow under questions, Will we ever be loved, Will we ever know why, Our greatest wish, Is to be the answer, To someone else’s hope. #ourpoetryx

how do you want this day to hold you? pocket-folded or bed-tucked? wind-borne or s t a r s t r u c k? buried under leaves of umbered gold? written within stories never to be told? do you yearn for a touch [any at all] or only the hands that can truly make you fall? #poetry

It's not finished Until the guessing stops Once, there was only intention Now, given breath A blueprint of the heart Ready at last To stand alone In the harsh sun To be, misunderstood #ও☉❢☉✑ #poetry #writing #micropoetry #blueskywriters #writingcommunity

She writes not with a pen but with her heart she uses not ink but blood they are not words but the fabric of her very being it is not poems but her soul she bares #poetry

and the morning ran with a whisper of white wind high to the hilltops #haiku

an autumn tree its only decoration... birdsong #haiku

"We invented phonetic writing so we could put our sounds down on paper and, by glancing at a page, hear someone speaking in our head—an invention that became so widespread in the last few thousand years that we hardly ever stop to consider how astonishing it is." -Carl Sagan, Billions & Billions

i sit quietly - rain falls on this wooden heart and softens my edges breathing deep, I share the Earth's renewed rejoicing - a song in a song paradoxical hot and cold, light and dark I centre within #haiku

crusted snow… the melting path of a sparrow #haiku #poetry

slow orbit i keep returning to the same small grief not to suffer it but to place it more carefully until it becomes not a wound i circle but a cairn and my days move around it like a quiet vow to remember well #poetry

You remind me of the moon—bright and welcoming. Even in shadows, your beauty is felt.

This is my secret co-writer. Whenever I get stuck on an idea, I just give them a lil rub and boom! Problem solved :) #TrilobiteTuesday #AmWriting #writingcommunity *(prefers belly rubs)

Deep in the woods, a cabin glows, Birds settle on its slanted roof, Chatter spills like a gentle song, Then lifts away again, Quiet seeps through timbers, Hollows linger patiently, Waiting for their return. #SenseWrds #prompt 148 tenderness repetitive absence #writingcommunity #amwriting

Life unmade A million tiny histories Let loose in the wind Real silence now The world remembering water Forgetting anew #ও☉❢☉✑ #poetry #writing #micropoetry #blueskywriters #writingcommunity

Your whispers fall like soft rain, beating my ear drums— my soul hums along #Haiku #Whispers

Midwinter Light Fog gathers outside #bountiful, the candle weeps its soft surrender— a grief so small, morsel the soul’s slow #unraveling. #Prompters #Poetry A Solseed Joint #haikufeels #unravel #solseed #bountiful

Sunday blahs Weak tea, it seems So far from my couch And its steep entropy Water and tea Cooling to mid My milque and my toast Room temperature Like me #ও☉❢☉✑ #poetry #writing #micropoetry #blueskywriters #writingcommunity

I am dust and spine, A fold spilling words, My history collected, A bookcase life, Petals among pages, My summer days saved, Memories lent, Yet to be returned. #thingstowriteabout

i die a little, everyday to hear the words you dare not say to catch the petals as they fall a needless loss a paper wall #♡ᝰ.🖋️ #poetrysky #poetry #poem #blueskypoets

Happy #DoctorWhoDay everyone! ✨ #doctorwho #whovians

imperfect beauty #SensoryArt #Water #BNW

Buried in white A ghost standing Still and bent It does not pine for the sun It merely waits Haunting the slow hours In the grey slant of light Across the snow #ও☉❢☉✑ #poetry #writing #micropoetry #blueskywriters #writingcommunity

Remember to Laugh last night you laughed and for a moment the years fell off you like dust from a curtain I glimpsed the child waiting patiently behind your face

Seasons change. So do I. Time turns red Before reawakening, Betwixt, between, Belonging again. ❤️ #EastCoastKin #RedWed #Macro #ColorADay #PhotoHour #poetry #PhotographersUnited #artyear #PhotographersOfBlueSky #photo

after the rain came the sky lay down in the field where the river was

above the flat snow stark tussocks of withered grass all that remains — now silent winter witnesses whipped by the ice cold wind #DailyHaikuPrompt #Haiku #senryu #tanka

Whoa! So beautiful✨

far galaxies fade before their light ever lands on this small moment #haiku

she sewed colorful notes together a quilted melody #dailyhaikuprompt #haiku

love poems scribbled in ink the words, now worn smooth like riverstones that i know each of them by heart #♡ᝰ.🖋️ #poetrysky #poetry #poem #micropoetry #blueskypoets #writingcommunity

Your daily fortune: If you find it hard to finish things, just half finish things, but do it twice.
